Sweet Pregnant Wife: CEO Phillip's Fierce Love novel Chapter 72

Receiving too much information during one day made it difficult for Ann to concentrate on working.

After work, she went to the kindergarten to pick up Nikki. She found that someone was moving into the house next to hers.

She looked inside curiously but didn't see the householder.

Judging from the furniture that the movers had carried, which were all very valuable, Ann thought the householder must be wealthy.

That night, she was still thinking about Phillip's identity when she saw a notice in the WeChat workgroup.

The research and development team needed to send a few people to collect perfume ingredients in other provinces and they would set off the next afternoon.

Because no one signed up, the boss directly ordered a few people to do it.

Ann was one of them.

Ann thought it was good because she could escape for a while and calm down herself in another city.

As for Nikki, she naturally asked Daisy to take care of her.

The work of collecting raw materials proceeded smoothly. This was the first time Ann had worked wholeheartedly. That feeling was exceptionally good.

On the day before returning to the River City, Ann went to visit the spice cultivation grounds with the local spice dealers.

Upon returning to the hotel, she was about to go upstairs when a spice merchant said that he wanted to add Ann's WeChat because they had good communication these days.

Ann was taking out her phone and letting the man scan it when the phone was suddenly snatched away by someone. Then a big hand wrapped around her waist.

"Just focus on work. Why do you have to exchange WeChat?"

He didn't even have her WeChat!

When she heard the familiar and overbearing voice of the man above her head, Ann's body stiffened and she struggled slightly. She felt embarrassed.

"What are you doing?"

Phillip withdrew his gaze from the merchant. Looking at Ann who was struggling away from him, he frowned and his tone sounded dissatisfied.

"Why didn't you answer my call?"

Hearing this, Ann was a little awkward, and she dodged Phillip's gaze.

"Maybe because I was busy with work and didn't see it...."

She couldn't say that she didn't know what to say to him.

Phillip was a little suspicious about Ann's attitude. Thus, he glanced at the astonished spice merchant beside him.

"If you're busy, how can you friend others on WeChat?"

Before Ann explained it, Phillip strode forward, hugged Ann into his embrace, and entered the elevator.

In the elevator, Ann tried to break away from Phillip's embrace, but she was held tightly and pressed against the wall of the elevator. Phillip then looked down at her.

"Are you a turtle? You always hide whenever you encounter problems!"

The elevator was filled with his aura. Ann felt her cheeks were burning and her heartbeat quickly.

She tilted her head, "I didn't hide! Why did I do that?"

Phillip felt that something was wrong with Ann. He leaned closer and narrowed his eyes.

"You didn't hide? Then why didn't you answer my call? You even wanted to run when you saw me. Are you avoiding seeing me?"

Her eyelashes trembled and she whispered, "The little boy...."

Phillip loosened his hand on her waist, and his pitch-black eyes slightly flashed.

Seeing this, Ann was even more certain that Phillip was the little boy.

She was certain that the person who had been so intimate with her and she had waited for many years was standing in front of her.

The apprehension in her heart was dispersed by joy. Her eyes were bright and she smiled.

"Phillip, you are my little hero!"

She was pretty certain and her tone carried a kind of indescribable emotion.

Phillip, on the other hand, retracted his hands from Ann's waist. Seeing her joyful expression, he fell into silence.

"You didn't push me away just now because you thought I was your little hero? What if I am not?"

She snorted. "But you are."

Phillip looked at the puzzled expression of Ann and pursed his lips. The light in his eyes dimmed as well.

In Ann's heart, the little boy was the most trustworthy person besides her father. But Phillip wasn't.

At this moment, Phillip was struggling with himself.

Previously, he wanted Ann to discover his identity.

But now, Ann cared more about the little boy than Phillip.

Therefore, he got jealous of himself...
